Claria and Wide CRT-D MRI, serial RPB603896S, RPB603895S
Product Description
The CLARIA MRI system is indicated for use in patients with a high risk of sudden death due to ventricular tachyarrhythmias and who suffer from heart failure with ventricular dyssynchrony. The device is designed to provide atrial, ventricular or both atrial pacing, cardioversion and defibrillation for the automatic treatment of atrial, ventricular tachyarrhythmias, or both, which may endanger the patient's life.
“If our surveillance systems identify a potential performance issue, our personnel promptly evaluate the problem, including, when appropriate, conducting root cause investigations and internal testing to assess whether the product continues to meet specifications and defined performance criteria,” Medtronic told ICIJ in a statement. “In some cases, based on this evaluation, Medtronic may determine that a recall is necessary.” The company said that it communicates with healthcare providers and/or patients and provide recommendations to address such issues. Medtronic noted that these communications can include letters, emails, calls, press releases, physician notifications and social media postings, as well as informing the FDA and other regulators of the actions.

Product Description
VENTAK PRIZM Automatic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (AICD). DR, model 1851, DR HE, model 1853 and 1858, PRIZM VR HE, model 1857, PRIZM 2 VR model 1860 and PRIZM 2 DR model 1861. The ICDs are designed to detect and terminate ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) and provide bradycardia therapy (atrial and ventricular pacing). Therapies include both low- and high-energy shocks using either a biphasic or monophasic waveform. Bradycardia pacing, including adaptive-rate features is available to detect and treat bradyarrhythmias and to support the cardiac rhythm after defibrillation therapy. The devices denoted with DR offer dual-chamber bradycardia features (atrial and/or ventricular pacing and sensing), and the devices denoted with VR offer single-chamber bradycardia features (ventricular pacing and sensing). Sterilized with gaseous ethylene oxide. Guidant Corporation, Cardiac Rhythm Management, 4100 Hamline Avenue North, St. Paul, MN 55112-5798 USA
